Those columns are comments. Any links to scripps.edu are more than four years
old, and are outdated.

The most recently loaded parameters are the ones that get used. So, if you
load the frcmod file after the parm99.dat file, the values in the frcmod file

check for yourself, using (say) the rdparm program.
